Sorry, I wanted to take care of more of my backlog first!

*It's mostly the rhetorical tone one takes when talking to oneself. Or a gravestone.

He rolls over a bit so he can see John. His features are drawn, tired.*

Not...not to it, really. More to myself. To anyone that might listen.

*His voice matches. There's so much doubt and so much to do, and so much they've learned, and the clock is ticking down to the time when he'll take action.*

no worries, it's all good. uvu

[And when Enoch rolls over, it suddenly becomes obvious to John what the deal is. He knows that look all too well at this point. After all, that same tired look can be found in John's eyes. It hasn't yet spread to his face and voice as a whole, mostly because there still too many other emotions whirling through his mind at the moment.]

Heheh. It's been... quite an exciting month, hasn't it? Again. Thinking on it, we have lots of exciting months here, don't we? [He takes a seat on the ground.] Or maybe 'lively' would be a better word than exciting.

Wow that style shift came out of nowhere sorry. /rolls with it anyway

Few as much as this one. But... *There's a little smile there, faint, and it doesn't reach his eyes.* The important thing is where it all came from. What have our hosts done to us this month?

it's also all good, i have no complaints. less brain power on my part.

[ghostytrainer]

Ahaha, true. I suppose this month it was more... our own fault than theirs, wasn't it? Or some of us... not all of us. [There's something of a self-depreciating laugh there. He feels kind of stupid now. Because it seems that, not only was the boycott harmless, but it was actually HELPFUL in a way.]

[warriorscribe]

Mm. *He knows the tone - while not among those who thought it was too stupid to try (despite his experiences when he first arrived; he had misgivings but was willing to give it a shot), he didn't want to put Zo in any danger. And yet...*

The current overseer of the tower has more power than I thought. Had I known that...

[ghostytrainer]

You talking about that broadcast from the other day? The one with Jason and Zo?

[warriorscribe]

I am. It seems the one overseeing us has quite a bit of power over the others for the month.

*Not that he'd want to suddenly do everything during Zo months unless they had Zo's guaranteed protection from the boy himself. He didn't want to make him think the others were right about them and their destructive tendencies...*

[ghostytrainer]

Yeah, I was kind of surprised about that too. I wonder if this is always the case or if it's just because it's his month. But I am glad that nothing bad happened to him because of that whole boycott mess.

[warriorscribe]

*Enoch nods.* That's what I was worried about... We've caused a lot of trouble for him this month, haven't we?

[ghostytrainer]

[Sigh.]

Yeah. Maybe we should send him some kind of apology note next time he's in charge or something.

[warriorscribe]

I know I plan to, if something unexpected doesn't happen between then and now...

*It's all too likely, unfortunately, with how little time they have left.*
